For the Ellsworth American. J
The Pension Bill Veto.

S W HARBoE. Feb. 81. 1857.
Mr.. Edit"r:
Will you allow me a little space in your
valuable paper | beg leave to differ with
the wiseacre of the Bar Harbor RecDrd,
who volunteers the remark that Presi-
dent Cleveland has done well to veto the
Dependent Soldiers Pension Bill. | ven
ture to assert he was not a volunteer sol
der. never. Neither Is he authority to
speak for the soldier; but allow ne TO in
quire rho this nominal soldier" is, whom
he refers to: 1t can't be those Mexican
war soldiers who, history will show, never
saw a Mexican in their 80 days service; ;
not them, surely, for President Cleveland
approved a bill to pension them. Now
then, who We're they? Let me say this to
the writer of the article referred to; the
applicants whom he speaks of were Union
soldiers who helped to crush the Rebellion,
and allow me to inform him-and | speak
whereof ! know-that those soldiers when
they enlisted. did SO to 90 where they were
sent and if he is old enough to remember
the time of their enlistment, it was not for
boys play, but for business, as this whole
broad country could then testify. if NOT
NOW.
Let us take one regiment for exam
pie and that one was called Lincoln 5
Pets" the LIST Maine Heavy Artillery, who
were kept in garrison for about two years.
They went where they were sent and final
ly they were sent where perhaps no other
regiment got a greater dose of horror. 60
ing in with over 22O0 strong, and coming
out with about 800 inside of one months
time. How was that for nominal SOL
diers? Only the other day talked with
one of them; he gets no pension because
he has got no hospital record, and was one
of those whom we then considered the
lucky ones who didn't get hit, but-didn't
he get hurt? Try it yourself and you will
understand whether a man can be used up,
whether he can be made old before his
time; and count that nothing!
Some nsed to call those who could show
the best hospital record, cheats" and bum
mers." now they are the ones who did all
the fighting according to the rewards given,
or pensions paid. Had We supposed then.

THE Gazette processes to have "stil
something else" about the doings of tn;
Com which it threatens its
readers with "at the proper time" OuI
with it.
The editor of the Gazette was sum
moned before the committee appointed
to examine the annual report of the
Commissioners, and was examined un>
der oath. The sum total of information
be possessed, it was aScertained, haC
been obtained of one Day, of Mead
township, and related to work done
for the county 10 that township. Two
reputable men of the township were
likewise before the committee, as well
as a communication from the trustees
of the township (all unfrieDdly to Com
missioner Berry, politically and en-.
gineer Norton, who surveyed the work;
and it was the impression of disiDter-
ested persons who stood by and heard
from these gentlemen that work esti>
mated to cost $3.50 by the engineer and
trustees, done at Il cost of $500, did not
exhibit very reckless waste of public
money by Commissioner Berry, under
whose direction it was performed. 1t
is well known fact that township
authorities, or individuals, going before
the Com missioners asking for work, are
apt to underestimate its cost; and yet
in this case Commissioner Berry got the
work done for only $40 in excess OF its
estimated cost, and it is a fact that en-
gineer Norton told the contractor that

THE editor of the Gazette should unt
derstand that we wish no personal cont
troversy with him in print, and that he
can not afford to have one.
That paper sets up a sort of denial
that bids to furnish blanks at about one
half the sum paid the Gazette were sent
Auditor Barrett. 1t is very remarkable,
indeed, if Mr. Barrett was ignorant of
the fact that the Gazette was buying
blanks at less than S4 per thousand and
selling them to the county At IS 20. 1t
is fact ell known in all printing Of
fees, and we believe to all other Audi+
tor5-the Auditor this year received ii
proposal from Columbus printing
house to furnish them for S4 % per
thousand this has been the custom for
years, and we are not quite prepared TO
think MI Barrett is so stupid as the
Gazette would have US believe.
And then the public is enlightened
with further remarks about the quality
OF the paper. AS the blanks are largely
filed with lead pencil. are rarely re-
ferredto, and in comparatively short
tine are sold as waste paper, we are
unable to see what especial difference it
makes whether printed upon Il Id. or
"A ID. paper. unless it is desired to
add to the weight assessors are re
quired to pack around with them. The
assessors books, required to be filled in
ink, and furnished by the state, arr
printed upon about H. paper.
The pound business won't answer,
Mr.. Gazette. You have been paid for
four years for these blanks about double
their cost to you, aud double what the
county could have got them for, ana
both you and Ex'AuditoIs Barrett and
Coffl lnd know it.

The Gazette prUfesses to have infor-
nation that Commissioner Berry on
some occasion had spelled Kentucky
with an i. This is serious matter, and
should be investigated. Your real blue
grass gentleman always puts it, Kahn
lucky, he gawd, sir" and We presume
the cultivated gentleman at the head of
the Gazette finds fault with Commits
sioner Berry because be has departed
from that rule.
Mr. Berry did not have the advantages
of education enjoyed by the editor OF
the Gazette, and may not be so accurate
of speech and with the pen, but in all
the qualities of true manhood he is
greatly the superior of his assailants ;and
it may be well enough to note the fact
that the word named was written by
Mr. w J McClain. following Mr. Berry S
name, purely in sport, and that no one
but a malignant has had any other
thought about it. Mr. Berry entered
upon manhood with strong arms and
willing hands and level head. These
constituted his sole capital stock. He
.ook loving care of his parents in their
old age, and of sister He has strug'
gled TO afford hi1 children better oppor>
tunities than were afforded him, and in
measure has been saccessful; and we
are much mistaken if all right minded
men 90 not look upon this last maiig
nant stab at him as the most contempti1
BILE yet Invented.
